Our next Hangout On Air will take place on *February 5th* and will cover the topic of *Flexible & Automated Bidding: New Data Challenges*.
About 80% of the time, the average online marketeer spends their time doing manual low-value tasks, rather than improving performance and strategic initiatives. During this Hangout On Air, Product & Solutions Analyst, Dylan Schuyt, will take you through various options to automate the time consuming tasks.
__________________________________________________________________

*What if....*
Google+ is not a social network at all - never intended to be a Facebook killer, nor a Twitter wanna-be and definitely not in a rush to keep up with everything else out there...?
*What if....*
Google+ is Google's way of analyzing our personal relationships across all their products (because relationships can't be faked) and use that knowledge to fuel services like Google Now, Nest, Home automation and Driveless cars...?
*"So what the fuck is Google+ for anyway?"*
@102034052532213921839 is an ex-Google employee who helped design the UX of Google+ before he left Google a year ago, and whose name came up again on the Plus stream when he shared his *Thoughts on Google+* asking [quote] "So what the fuck is Google+ for anyway?" and got the community talking.
*SO LET'S -TALK- HANGOUT ABOUT IT.*
Chris is very disappointed with Google+ because he expects better from Google.
But maybe he's expecting the wrong things?
@113117251731252114390 rebutted Chris' post and defended Google+ in a Google+ post that was shared 524 time and sparked conversations across the Plus (https://www.gplusgotogal.com/MikeElganRebuttal1)
Chris responded - https://www.gplusgotogal.com/ChrisMessinaRebutal
And Mike claimed that Chris lost the argument because he didn't answer the main questions:
"What site has
1) a better community;
2) better troll control;
3) better photo tools;
4) better integration with a leading wearables platform;
5) better conversations;
6) better monetization;
7) better search?"
(https://www.gplusgotogal.com/MikeElganRebuttal2)
Basically, comparing Google+ to Facebook again. (_sigh_)
*IS CHRIS USING GOOGLE+ WRONG?*
Chris, who was an integral part in the development of Google+ for 3.5 years was told by @107742059751171695340 that he was using Google+ wrong. He should have been talking and listening to Top Contributors (which Jaana is one) who have their ears to the ground:
_"Which is the direction it's taking? That depends. Also on us, the users. Google listens."_
(You should definitely read the comments on Jaana's post, where she and Chris get into an agreement - https://www.gplusgotogal.com/JaanaNyströmGooglePlus)
*IS IT ABOUT THE SHARED INTEREST GRAPH?*
Perhaps the best insight is that of @105103058358743760661 who read between Chris' lines and brought up the point of Big Data and information networks:
[Google+] "should have been 1000% focused on helping people build a rich information network around the things we care most about - our interest graph - and then to use that interest graph to connect us with *new* people who share those interests with us - our "shared interest graph."
And if it's about the interest graph, then who's better than @115620878851836664537 to remind us that that takes time: _ It requires building a bunch of things, integrating them and then waiting to see how people will use them and what the data will show you. This means that we have to wait to see some results (many of which will impact search) and

Today, consumers are researching twice the number of sources they did a year ago, just prior to making a purchase.

*ClearVoice is for writers and bloggers.*
This is going to be a great presentation of a FREE tool for writers, bloggers and the like :D
There is a paid service for publishers looking to connect with writers, and guess what? This means you may well have new ways for your skills to be found i.e. more paid writing work for you!
Check out www.clearvoice.com and you'll see this new way for authors profiles to gain visibility.
*The relationship with Plus Your Business:*
Seeing as we love G+ and authorship, we thought this was a great way to bring @110476399899930103489 into the community, especially as @117367840058838921791 is in the PYB Academy.
_This is not a sponsored event, but we may well chat about opportunities in the future!_
And it will be none other than @101483462606059283606 who will lead us through it all.
*So, what is it all about?*
Well, from their website...
ClearVoice Search is the FIRST content platform to measure and categorize online content creators.
The score takes into account website value/reach, frequency of content posted, amount of content online, number of publications and social amplification.
ClearVoice Score mathematically gauges the true value of today’s digital writers.
ClearVoice started as a freelancer onboarding/editorial workflow tool, years before ClearVoice Score was developed.
ClearVoice writer topics are a collection of a content creator’s full work and the topics they write about. The “popular topics” are a comparison of those authors and what they write about.
The average score of all verified content authors is 45.007 on Google+ and 44.176 on Twitter.
More people have authenticated Twitter authorship than Google+. Twitter has approximately 80% verified authors, while Google+ has just 20%.
ClearVoice is completely built in-house with a robust engineering staff.
_Intrigued? Well, see you then!_

As the digital media landscape continues to evolve, there are a series of new opportunities to engage with users. How has this transformed the nature of AdWords customer support? At the AdWords Communities Global Summit, taking place October 16-17 at Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, California, several prominent Google speakers will attempt to answer this question.
On the first day of the Summit, we will be broadcasting the morning’s sessions via two Google+ Hangouts on Air.
In session 4, Françoise Brougher, Vice President of SMB Sales & Operations, Deepak Khandelwal, Vice President of Global Customer Services, and Brad Green, Engineering Manager will take part in a fireside Q&A on AdWords Support.

As the digital media landscape continues to evolve, there are a series of new opportunities to engage with users. How has this transformed the nature of AdWords customer support? At the AdWords Communities Global Summit, taking place October 16-17 at Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, California, several prominent Google speakers will attempt to answer this question.
On the first day of the Summit, we will be broadcasting the morning’s sessions via four Google+ Hangouts on Air.
Previously, the agenda for session 3 was for Eric Feron, Manager of Global AdWords Communities and Social, and Dave McCann, Online Sales and Operations Manager will walk us through “magical” support and AdWords Communities moments. Ultimately, this session was cut from the AdWords Communities Global Summit schedule, with session 2 being extended to fill this time. We apologize for those of you who were looking forward to hearing from Eric and Dave - perhaps you will find the session 2 content to be an appealing replacement (we modified the time of this Hangout to match the time of the session 2 hangout).
In session 2, Deepak Khandelwal, Vice President of Global Customer Services and Sophie Bromberg, Director of Online Help, will discuss the progress that AdWords customer support has made in recent years: http://goo.gl/5UNlj

On Monday 6th August, 11am EDT / 4pm BST, The Economist will host a Hangout on the subject of the Olympic Games, moderated by our community editor Mark Johnson.
Dan Rosenheck, the editor of our Game theory blog, will be on hand to discuss the winners and losers of the first ten days of sport. And our Britain correspondent, Rosie Blau, who has attended many of the events, will be available to talk about how London has handled the games. Organisers worried about transport chaos, and fretted over security. How many of their fears have come to pass? Have the British made visitors feel at home? And what kind of legacy will the games leave behind? All of these issues and more will be addressed and dissected in our live discussion.
You can pose your questions and comments to our Editors by posting below, or by using #askeconomist on Twitter.

My TOTEM of Sustainable FulfillmentWhat comes in my mind when I think about fulfillment is something that my mother told me when I was a teenager: know yourself and fulfillment will follow . With time, I've realized how true she was: self–knowledge and fulfillment are inextricably linked... and yet the most difficult thing in life is to know oneself.

I've always sought fulfillment in one form or another. Perhaps not surprisingly, because I considered myself an optimist I've found out that I was likely to feel that I have achieved fulfillment more than the pessimists around me.

I am not materialistic not because I've realized one day that money can't buy fulfillment but instead that what matter more than absolute wealth was the way I perceived my wealth. Rather than seeking to have what I wanted, I sought to want what I had.

With project Loon, Google Fiber and project Titan (think Google drones bringing wireless connectivity to remote locations), Google has set its sights on bringing connectivity to all who want it.

Google as a wireless carrier

There's been a lot of speculation that Google wants to begin providing wireless access as a mobile virtual network operator. To that speculation, Pichai had this to say:

"I think we're at the stage where we need to think of hardware, software, and connectivity together, Especially with things like watches. We don't intend to be a carrier at scale, and we're working with existing partners. You'll see some of our ideas come to fruit in the next few months."

Android

Android Pay was the big announcement here, and this will be integrated with Google Wallet for wireless NFC purchases. Pichai also mentioned that the Android One project (intended to bring a smart phone based on Android to emerging markets for around $100 per unit) was moving ahead. Google hopes to get that price down to half that in the coming years as well.

Google+

There's been a lot of speculation around what exactly is going on with +Google+. There's a clear change with +Bradley Horowitz taking lead with Photos and Streams.

There will also be other organizational changes, to include a focus on:

- The Google+ Stream- Hangouts- Photos

These changes will not be user-facing, and are a focus by Google on improving the G+ platform.

Just wanted to confirm that the rumors are true -- I’m excited to be running Google’s Photos and Streams products! It’s important to me that these changes are properly understood to be positive improvements to both our products and how they reach users.﻿___Congrats +Bradley Horowitz! The best is yet to come.

“ Google+ has always meant two things for us. There’s the stream in the product that you see. And for us, Google+ was also a way by which Google after many years, we made sure there’s common [login and] identity across our products. The second part was in many ways even more important than the first part. That part has worked really well for us." - +Sundar Pichai ﻿

I am not materialistic not because I've realized one day that money can't buy fulfillment but instead that what matter more than absolute wealth was the way I perceived my wealth. Rather than seeking to have what I wanted, I sought to want what I had.

With time I've defined my fulfillment as consisting of three things: someone to love , something to do and something to hope for.

About "someone to love" , fulfillment always cried out to be shared. It is like an embrace: only by sharing, is it possible to get enjoyment. My secret for fulfillment was my ability to find joy in another’s joy, my desire to make other people feel fulfilled.

For "something to do" , what I could call "work", was what tied me to the community. It added purpose to my living. It stimulated my senses. Meaningful work was essential for my mental health. Like my mom used to say, à la John F. Kennedy: "Ask not what your (community) can do for you; ask what you can do for your (community)".

Also, I needed hope in my life, I needed something to strive for . Hope was a vital element of my condition, spurring me on and encouraging me to explore and grow. Because I had hope, I had an easier time dealing with the misfortunes that were part and parcel of my life’s journey. That way, I could look at setbacks as temporary states, not permanent conditions. I got new strength out of the fact that I saw each adversity as limited in time. I never despaired. I was persistent, I didn't give up easily.

Finally, finding my TOTEM of sustainable fulfillment was not like arriving at a station. I would not one day get to a certain place and feel flooded with fulfillment. No miracles happened when I arrived at a final destination. There has never been a final destination. There would always be a next stop. Sustainable fulfillment would always be the way in which I would travel... and with whom...........................................

"A TOTEM is any supposed entity that watches over or assists a group of people, such as a family, a clan or a tribe." Wikipedia

My TOTEM helps me to focus on my goal of attaining sustainable fulfillment. Sustainable means to be lasting, to hold on to longer and is accomplished via my boundary function. My level of fulfillment consists of how much success, happiness and freedom I have in my life.

IMHO, these are basically what people desire or have attained on their deathbeds. Usually two groups of people exist on their deathbeds. The first group, those few people who are calm, peaceful and full of serenity and inner peace on their deathbeds have done what it is to set out and came here to do as a life mission by accomplishing their path and purpose or their bliss path in life. These people are said to have reached sustainable fulfillment.

The other group of people on their deathbeds is angry and resentful because they have never accomplished their bliss path or purpose in life and die miserable and unfulfilled.

My TOTEM consists on several parts and one overarching skill called Observing Myself :

. Observing myself: is the abstract ability to step outside myself and self-monitor myself in the real time present moment using all my five senses. This is the only skill that allows me the ability for change and growth. Observing myself allows my chronological age to catch up to my psychological age, which is never equally matched.

. My mature boundary function: this uses doors, which open and close based on win or lose deals that come my way. It is my boundary function which keeps out bad deal such as stress or allow in good deal such as love. My mature boundary function does not have holes to let in the good, and everything else. It also does not have walls, to keep everything out. I use healthy mature doors I which open and close depending on the deals that come my way. My mature boundary function also act as my fuel tank that stores my three other resources. My emotional energy, my decision making and my intellect and ideas. All of these three inner resources exist on a spectrum. If I master the two ends of a spectrum which defines its limits, then I can manage all in between:

. My decision making: my mastery of my decisions making lead to wisdom which gives me freedom granted by my community. This spectrum consist of both my conscience/ethic on one side and my intuition on the other side of the spectrum. My intuition comes from my decision making in different environment, while my conscience and ethic is my internal compass which guide me from right (constructive) and wrong (destructive) decisions to other outside of me. My perfect balance of both lead to my wisdom. This lead to freedom which is granted by my community.

. My ideas/intellect is my mastery of them and its arrangement lead to my success, which comes from my balance of both ends of the spectrum which consists of using my right brain experience or street smart, and my left brain education or book smart. My balance left/right lead to perfect time/energy management.

. My emotional energy which has both well being and confidence, combine to give me self-esteem . The higher my self esteem, the greater my happiness. the negative emotional energies are anger and anxiety. My antidote is respectively well being and confidence. I convert my anger by being assertive , which is simply getting my needs met by not relying on others (DIY). I convert my anxiety to self-confidence by showing courage, which is simply MY decision to do the right thing regardless of how I feel ( no fear ).

Anger, well being, and assertiveness is "mothering" , nurturing myself, while anxiety, confidence and courage is "fathering" myself, action oriented. Both halves of the two, well-being and confidence make up my self-esteem wich is simply my happiness. The happier I am, the higher is my self-esteem.

In conclusion, to reach my sustainable fulfillment or my lasting happiness, success and freedom, I have to master my boundaries. If I use a mature boundary function which "doors" which I open and close to win or lose deals that come my way, I can keep/hold/retain and achieve my durable success, durable happiness and durable freedom which is My TOTEM of sustainable fulfillment in my life.
